It’s officially summer. I can feel the temperature rising, the days longer. When thinking of summer, I always associate watermelon with it. Nothing works better then a ice-cold juicy watermelon that can cool down a hot summer day. It’s also a must when BBQing~
Pattern: Little House Needleworks “Fresh Watermelon”
Thread: DMC cotton floss
Fabric: 32ct Belfast Linen in Lt. Mocha
Finished Size: 5.5” x 5.375”
Completion Date: 06-25-2010
Besides the mouth watering watermelon in this design, those cute little ants were the other object that caught my eye!!! They just added some whimsical to the whole thing~~ With those shinning black beads, you would almost thought they are real ants!!!
There’s also a little black bird button that suppose to go on top of the watermelon, I still yet have to get it. But I think this looks pretty nice already~~
So how do you say cool in these long summer days? I hope it is filled with sweetness and joy~
Oh... very nice!!! I love it!! :)

I've not seen that chart before! So cute. I think watermelon is the very best part of summer. I'm always sad to see it go out of season.
ReplyDeleteI love this design! It just giggles with summer feelings, doesn't it? I've had it in my stash pile since it first was released last year and I have still yet to stitch it. I think you've inspired me to dig it out and stitch it up :)
